For safety and security
C-HR_OM_Europe_OM10528E
Make sure that you can see the rear of the vehicle clearly by adjusting 
the inside and outside rear view mirrors properly. ( P. 196, 198)
Adjusting the mirrors
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.  
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury. 
● Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.  
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. 
● Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.  
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce 
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint. 
● Do not place anything under the front seats.  
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat 
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-
dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged. 
● Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads. 
● When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to 
feel tired.  
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con- 
tinue driving and take a break immediately.
